Kids Mostly Asked Question - Why Should One Not Stand Under A Tree When There Is Lightning

Tell Me Why?

Why should one not stand under a tree when there is lightening? Whenever there is lightning, it attacks the tallest object in the field. Trees are generally tall with pointed tips. These make tree easy targets for lightning. So, if you take shelter under a tree when there's lightning, the lightning may strike you instead! And that's why you should never stand under a tree when there is lightning.
